Shopify apps and e-commerce integrations
Embedded apps, OAuth and app lifecycle, GraphQL Admin API, and getting store data somewhere it can actually be reported on.

Backend and data engineering for e-commerce and SaaS
I build the pipelines, APIs and integrations that have to be correct — Shopify apps, data warehouses, and AI features inside existing PHP codebases. Eleven years, most of it spent inside systems I didn’t write.
What I do
02
AI features in existing PHP applications
An LLM feature in production since 2023 — not a prototype. Prompts that stay stable, failures that degrade gracefully, output a user can trust.
03
Data pipelines and warehouse ETL
Multi-tenant sync that survives being re-run: idempotent writes, watermarks, leases, no duplicates and no silent drift.
Selected work
Who you’re hiring
I’m the person who gets handed a backend nobody else wants to touch — and makes it behave.
Nine years at Qualia as the backend and API specialist: a no-code predictive analytics SaaS where I owned both the PHP API and the Python model service, a royalty and settlement platform built from scratch, and outsourced work for a national broadcaster and a university.

Currently taking work
Available for roughly 20 hours a month, working async. I reply within 24 hours.
Best fit: a maintenance retainer, or a scoped project with a deadline.

A paragraph is enough to start. If it isn’t a fit I’ll say so quickly rather than waste your week.
